OT: Current Affairs and Politics

[Gary Gutful]

Hey the guy is free to do as he likes, but when people are doing it tough and he’s really done SFA about anything the last 3 years I hardly believe this will endear him to the masses.

...and we wonder why we can't get good people in politics.

...and we wonder why we can't get good people in politics.

I like Chris Minns he seems like a good person and 100x better leader/person in general then the peanut up your way in QLD Miles.

I think Minns is doing a decent job atm in NSW and his intentions/policies seem genuine.

The only problem is he a Bulldogs supporter.

I like Chris Minns

*er

Actions mean more then words

Albo - I am.going to fix the cost of living crisis.

Albo - Buys another house.

So what. I’m not fan of Albo but he can do whatever he likes with his money. Good luck to him.

I'm sure some people will have issues with it.

Mate I have zero problem problem with it. Good on him. Capitalism is great for people in the game. However it isn't a good look during a housing crisis and people battling to stay afloat. Just like when Morrison went on holidays and then there was a bushfire. Oh my the uproar on here

I'm basically taking the piss out of how left bias some people are on here. I'm suprised they don't see the comedic view of my posts.

Politics has no soul or ethics anymore. It's all about telling merkins what they want to hear and lining their own,friend,families pockets.
Just running a business basically

But but but but but Dutton!!

I couldn’t give a toss about Dutton, to me he’s unelectable. He’s also not running the country in a housing crisis and if he was he’d be getting far more scrutiny.

But Albo is and to me it’s just dumb atm.

You kinda ignored the fact that the popular eastern cities have had an affordability issue for some time and there is really little that can be done from any government. It's the free market doing what it is doing.

BTW you did the but but Dutton, then launched into a but but Albo. Take a breath.

Sydney Melbourne Brisbane are nice places to live with good wages. Similar cities across the world have expensive housing. What do you really expect anyone to do about it ?

Albo HAS proposed a stop on negative gearing and OMG Voldermort was onto that. He Just passed a housing bill which the LNP and Greens opposed.

Landmark housing legislation passes the Parliament | Treasury Ministers

The Albanese Labor Government’s landmark legislation to deliver the single biggest investment in affordable and social housing in more than a decade has passed the Parliament. The $10 billion Housing Australia Future Fund will now be established, creating a secure, ongoing pipeline of funding...

Chris Minns has already introduced a cap on the Land Tax threshold in NSW in the 2024/25 budget. Does anyone know what that means ? I tell you what, people with substantial investment properties do.

You has so much to talk about and all your brain could latch onto was "Take a breath he says" ?

Politicians aren't paid exorbitant amounts compared to what you can get in the private sector.

Most people who winge about them being overpaid, doing f**k all etc are dumb merkins who wouldn't hack the pressure for more than a day.

Great latching on with your brain there, quality Engrish.

Maybe ask @King-Gutho94 for a hand???

122 days to go before Round 1.

I must have missed the memo that the season started in Mid-February next year.

Not the first weekend in March

122 days to go before Round 1.

Valentines Day is always the approx date for the first trial, sweetheart.

Junior Reps trial one week before Xmas, Then for the two weekends between new years and Australia day before kicking off the weekend after Australia day.

It's a good article for Chaser or Shovel and I would give it a well played. But a "serious" news company?

 

[MarkInTheStands]

Yeah I would say we are trialing on the 21st of December,
So from the end of the Pacific Championships on the 10th of November to junior reps trials would be 41 days.

The longest 41 days of the year. . . .

What does someone's private investment past have to do with anything?
He has worked hard to be where he wants to be. I honestly don't give a f**k whether it is Albo or not.

Why can he not live his own life and make his own investments and be successful, just like you?

As a lifelong nominal conservative, I think its great that Albo is investing his hard earned - good luck to him, sincerely!
